About this event

Celebrate the launch of Pigeons in the Snow, a new collection of interconnected short stories by David Coyle, capturing the lives, encounters and unexpected connections that unfold over one extraordinary day and night in Wellington. Set against the familiar backdrop of New Zealand's capital, these vividly drawn stories weave together a rich tapestry of characters and experiences, revealing the humour, complexity and quiet beauty of everyday city life. With sharp, engaging prose and keen observations of human nature, Coyle offers a heartfelt literary tribute to Wellington and the people who call it home. Described by fellow author Emma Sidnam as a love letter to the interconnected lives that make a city, Pigeons in the Snow is a celebration of place, people and the stories that bring them together. The launch will feature special guests Hamish Clayton, Harry Ricketts, Michelle Elvy, Tim Jones and Vivienne Plumb, bringing together a wonderful gathering of literary voices. Come along for a relaxed Sunday afternoon of books, conversation and celebration. Enjoy refreshments, snacks, tea and coffee, with copies of the book available to purchase. Copies of Pigeons in the Snow can also be ordered online through At the Bay.
